Bit of an over reaction and not really a face move (except for the local crowd), but that's pretty much it.

Didn't Cena root against the Red Sox one time he was promoting WWE at a baseball game or in the Tampa area. It would have been the same year Rays faced the Red Sox in the playoffs.
I noticed the crowd didn't seem that upset at when Punk called Cena the Yankees but did react to when Cena punched Punk.
This is from just a few months ago of him being part of a rally video but I think he had moved to Tampa at the time.
